Are you new to Parkinson's?

If you are newly diagnosed as a Person with Parkinson's, may I suggest that you go to beginning of my blog and read chronologically. If I say so myself, I tell story of discovery that is both optimistic and entertaining.

I fear that if you start with my last post " Progression" that you, the new reader, will get the impression that we People with Parkinson's are doomed to a future of disease and decay. (well, yeah, maybe, but no use in thinking about that yet.)
